Bio

Left back who joined the club as a twenty five year old to link up with his younger brother Roy. Alec first turned out at right-back before having a spell in the Reserves, but since returning to the first team has played consistently well.

Alec, who is a cousin of Les Patterson, has had a chequered career in football. He played for Wealdstone in the Athenian League when he was as only 17 and then joined Yiewsley where he played alongside Ken Clarridge.

When Yiewsley turned professional just over two years ago and joined the Southern League, Alec joined Wembley and became skipper of the first team. He was with them or two seasons until joining Slough.

Like so many of Slough's players, Alec represented his school and played for his District Schools team at Ealing, where he was a centre-forward. Made captain as Bob Gibbs rebuilt the side after the disastrous season 1960-61. Moved on to Southall in October 1964 but returned to the club for season 1965/66.

Married, with three girls and lived in Hanwell. Alex is a telephone engineer. When he manages to take time off to relax he listens to modern jazz.
